Panda Bear returns with new track 'playing the long game'

With his brilliant new album 'Buoys' still ringing in our ears from earlier this year, Panda Bear has now returned to deliver a brand new single.

The new track 'playing the long game' is his first new release since appearing as a guest vocalist on Teebs' cut 'Studie' last month, and continues his collaboration with producer Rusty Santos.

Speaking about the new Fernanda Pereira-directed video, he said, “We had a good time making this video across the river. Thanks to everyone involved to make it happen. The song is about a brief series of thoughts I had one morning about who I am, what I’m doing, and where I’m going. Hope you enjoy it and hope all’s well.”
